The House dealt a crushing blow to efforts to find a big deficit reduction deal tonight, routing a bipartisan budget based on President Barack Obama&rsquo;s fiscal commission on a 38-to-382 vote.

The chamber also unanimously voted down a proposal based on the president&rsquo;s $3.6 trillion budget brought up by a GOP lawmaker, with all 414 Members who cast votes opposed.

Rep. Mick Mulvaney offered the plan in a seeming effort to embarrass Democrats into voting against it, a line that will no doubt echo across the campaign trail for the rest of the year.

&ldquo;It&rsquo;s the president&rsquo;s budget so you would think that maybe Congress would bring it up and vote on it, but evidently Democrats didn&rsquo;t think that so I&rsquo;m doing them that favor,&rdquo; the South Carolina Republican said in an interview.

Democrats, however, cried foul. Budget ranking member Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) said that the document was a stripped-down version of Obama&rsquo;s plan that didn&rsquo;t include any policy statements and therefore was a &ldquo;charade.&rdquo;

Members also panned the &ldquo;Go Big&rdquo; deficit reduction efforts despite high hopes from its co-sponsors that the measure would at least pick up triple-digit support.

Rep. Steven LaTourette (R-Ohio), who sponsored the $1.043 trillion budget with Rep. Jim Cooper (D-Tenn.), told reporters earlier in the day that he had hoped for at least 100 &ldquo;yes&rdquo; votes to match the number of Members who endorsed the &ldquo;Go Big&rdquo; efforts aimed at persuading the Joint Committee on Deficit Reduction to strike a bipartisan deal.

&ldquo;Surprising people have come up to me&rdquo; expressing support, he said. &ldquo;The telltale sign is it&rsquo;s being vigorously attacked from the left and the right, which is a sign that you&rsquo;re on to something.&rdquo;

But the effort failed and was voted down even by some of its biggest boosters. Minority Whip Steny Hoyer, who despite touting the &ldquo;Go Big&rdquo; efforts voted against the amendment, said in a statement that he did so because he did not think now was the right time to vote on the measure.

&ldquo;In order to achieve a big and balanced deficit reduction package, we must build a broad consensus,&rdquo; the Maryland Democrat wrote. &ldquo;The budget substitute offered tonight by Reps. Jim Cooper and Steve LaTourette came to the Floor before that broad consensus could be achieved, which is why I voted against it.&rdquo;

The Congressional Black Caucus sponsored the budget that received the most support tonight. It would have made no cuts to Social Security, Medicaid or Medicare. It failed on a 107-to-314 vote.

Voting down the first three substitute budget amendments marks the halfway point as Republican leaders whittle their way toward Budget Chairman Paul Ryan&rsquo;s fiscal 2013 blueprint, which is expected to pass Thursday afternoon.

Heading into Thursday&rsquo;s deliberations, Republican leaders were confident that Ryan&rsquo;s budget would pass.

&ldquo;Momentum is good,&rdquo; Chief Deputy Majority Whip Peter Roskam (R-Ill.) said. &ldquo;I think there&rsquo;s a recognition that what the Budget Committee did is thoughtful and well-grounded and reflective of our Conference.&rdquo;

The House will also consider the conservative Republican Study Committee budget and a Van Hollen-sponsored Democratic alternative to the Ryan budget and will vote on the Congressional Progressive Caucus budget.

The CPC document was debated tonight, a move the group&rsquo;s leaders decried as &ldquo;cheap political posturing and an attempt to sweep the competition under the rug.&rdquo;

&ldquo;This outrageous maneuver limits the ability of the public and media to follow the exchange,&rdquo; CPC Co-Chairmen Reps. Ra&uacute;l Grijalva (D-Ariz.) and Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) said in a statement.

Nevertheless, the budget will almost certainly not pass, and Grijalva acknowledged as much by saying in an interview that he only hopes to get more than the 78 &ldquo;yes&rdquo; votes the fiscal 2012 CPC budget received last year.
